By Staff Writer | October 5, 2015

Well-placed sources tell R&WI that the FAA has named Lance T. Gant the full-time head of its Rotorcraft Directorate. As the assistant manager of the directorate, Gant has served as its acting manager for much of the time since the previous manager, Kim Smith, retired in Dec. 2014. The agency had been interviewing candidates for the job for several months.
